research Stem Cells behind the Barrier
Stem cell differentiation is crucial for skin barrier maintenance and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research Miniaturized hairs maintain contact with the arrector pili muscle in alopecia areata but not in androgenetic alopecia: A model for reversible miniaturization and potential for hair regrowth
Miniaturized hairs stay connected to muscle in alopecia areata, allowing possible regrowth, but not in androgenetic alopecia.
research The Androgen Receptor and Its Use in Biological Assays: Looking Toward Effect-Based Testing and Its Applications
Scientists have developed a new method to detect steroid abuse in athletes using cell-based tests, which could be the future of anti-doping methods.
research Pediatric Psychocutaneous Disorders
Recognizing and managing skin-related psychiatric disorders in children is crucial for effective treatment.
research Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy for investigating murine telogen skin after spontaneous or depilation-induced hair growth
EPR spectroscopy showed that spontaneous hair growth results in thicker skin and less pigmented hair than depilation-induced growth.
research A Monoallelic Two-Hit Mechanism in PLCD1 Explains the Genetic Pathogenesis of Hereditary Trichilemmal Cyst Formation
A specific gene change plus an additional mutation in the same gene cause hereditary trichilemmal cysts.
research Genetic variants in pachyonychia congenita-associated keratins increase susceptibility to tooth decay
Certain genetic variants in keratins increase the risk of tooth decay.
research Is acne a sign of androgen excess disorder or not?
Acne is an important sign of androgen excess disorders in women.
research Is polycystic ovary syndrome a sexual conflict? A review
The conclusion suggests that PCOS may persist due to genetic traits that, while harmful for female fertility, could have provided survival and reproductive benefits to males.
research Targeted therapy in melanoma
New treatments for advanced skin cancer are improving patient outcomes, but drug resistance and finding the right treatment combinations are still big challenges.
research Exfoliative cutaneous lupus erythematosus in German shorthaired pointer dogs: disease development, progression and evaluation of three immunomodulatory drugs (ciclosporin, hydroxychloroquine, and adalimumab) in a controlled environment
Hydroxychloroquine showed some potential, but overall, the three drugs had limited success in treating lupus in dogs.
research How Should Educators and Publishers Eliminate Racial Essentialism?
Educators and publishers should focus on teaching racism as the cause of health inequity and ensure fair use of race in materials.
research Novel aspects of age-protection by spermidine supplementation are associated with preserved telomere length
Spermidine helps protect against aging by preserving telomere length.
research Cutaneous wound healing: canine allogeneic ASC therapy
Using stem cells from fat tissue can significantly improve wound healing in dogs.
research Integrative analysis of rare copy number variants and gene expression data in alopecia areata implicates an aetiological role for autophagy
The research suggests that autophagy-related genes might play a role in causing alopecia areata.
research An Update on Drug-Induced Pigmentation
Some drugs can cause skin and hair color changes, often reversible when the drug is stopped.
research Neuropsychological Assessment in Elderly Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Treated with Dutasteride
Dutasteride does not impair mental function in elderly men with enlarged prostate.
research Problems and Solutions for Platelet-Rich Plasma in Facial Rejuvenation: A Systematic Review
PRP shows promise for improving facial wrinkles, skin elasticity, and hair growth, but more research is needed to standardize its use and understand its effects.
research Finasteride and Erectile Dysfunction in Patients with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride may increase erectile dysfunction risk in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Long-term dutasteride therapy in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia alters glucose and lipid profiles and increases severity of erectile dysfunction
Long-term use of dutasteride for enlarged prostate may worsen blood sugar, cholesterol, and erectile dysfunction.
research Finasteride, not tamsulosin, increases severity of erectile dysfunction and decreases testosterone levels in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia
Finasteride worsens erectile dysfunction and lowers testosterone in men with enlarged prostates, unlike tamsulosin.
research Getting under the skin: what is the potential of the transfollicular route in drug delivery?
The transfollicular route shows promise for noninvasive, targeted drug delivery but needs more research.
research The Enigma of the Stigma of Hair Loss: Why is Cancer-Treatment Related Alopecia so Traumatic for Women?
Hair loss from cancer treatment is very distressing for women due to its impact on self-image and social stigma.
research The dermatological consequences of obesity
Obesity increases the risk of skin infections, inflammatory conditions, and melanoma, but not basal cell carcinoma.
research NovelPAX9mutation associated with syndromic tooth agenesis
A new PAX9 gene mutation causes missing teeth and hair problems, but not skin or nail issues.
research Morphometric-stereological and functional epididymal alterations and a decrease in fertility in rats treated with finasteride and after a 30-day post-treatment recovery period
Finasteride causes lasting fertility decrease in rats.
research Histologic progression of acne inversa/hidradenitis suppurativa: Implications for future investigations and therapeutic intervention
Acne inversa is an epithelial-driven disease where inflammation is caused by cyst rupture, and treatments should focus on preventing tendril growth for better results.
research Androgenetic alopecia: combing the hair follicle signaling pathways for new therapeutic targets and more effective treatment options
New treatments for hair loss may target specific pathways and generate new hair follicles.
